Over Christmas my neighbors friend told us how she drinks peroxide and feels great- and she even used it on old fish- to make it like new. I am interested if anyone has tried this - and what the findings were. We think she is over the top on this one.... but I am willing to learn- if anyone has any experience on it. ?

It won't hurt you, as long as it's in moderation, like everything else. The molecular formula is H2O2, which means it's like water (H2O) with an extra oxygen atom attached to the molecule. The fish got a new lease on life because it got some extra oxygen. http://drinkh2o2.com/

Hi Wind- I wonder what moderation is.

PA, peroxide is corrosive. So, a little won't do you harm but a lot would be damaging to your insides. Doctors don't recommend it as an anti-infective anymore as it tends to eat away at good tissue.

"Corrosive" is the wrong term. It has no chemical action. It does two things: it releases oxygen, and it produces heat as it does so. Oxygen is great stuff. The heat that it gives off might cause burning, though.

Its a great mouthwash. Ingestion If ingested, solutions of hydrogen peroxide up to concentrations of 9% are generally nontoxic; however, even a 3% solution is mildly irritating to mucosal tissue and may cause vomiting and diarrhea. Ingestion of industrial-strength solutions (≥10%) causes systemic toxicity and has been associated with fatalities ........ Health Effects •Hydrogen peroxide is corrosive to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes at high concentrations (>10%); lower concentrations may cause irritation. •Other effects occur from inhalation or ingestion and may include gas embolism, gastric irritation, gastric distension and emesis, an accumulation of fluid in the lungs, unconsciousness, and respiratory arrest. •Symptoms become more severe as the concentration of hydrogen peroxide increases. http://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/MHMI/mmg174.html Symptoms•Abdominal pain and cramping •Breathing difficulty (if large concentrations were swallowed) •Body aches •Burns in the mouth and throat •Eye burns •Seizures (rare) •Stomach swelling •Temporary white color to the skin •Vomiting Outlook (Prognosis) Most contact with household strength hydrogen peroxide is relatively harmless. Inappropriate exposure to industrial strength hydrogen peroxide can be dangerous. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002652.htm

I use peroxide as a mouth rinse before I brush, and to soak my tongue ring in before reinsertion. I do not under any circumstances swallow so much as a drop of the stuff. [sm=2cents.gif]

I wonder if this is similar to alkaloid water.
